Treated only anecdotally in past histories and the island commonly referred to as \"Unionist,\" this book is the first to present a comprehensive account of \"Cayo Hueso\" during the war. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eFrom its quick military occupation after Florida declared independence, increasing numbers of troops, new forts built, and deportation of citizens accused of \"treasonable utterances,\" Key West became an embattled community of those who quietly wished for independence and those loyal to the occupier. But despite the military crackdown and patrols, secret communication with Florida officials on the mainland, and blockade running, continued unabated. This is the story of Key West during the Civil War.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=AUTH-15501134\"\u003eJohn Bernhard Thuersam\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Shotwell Publishing LLC\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 05\/22\/2022\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 266\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.87lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.60d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781947660663\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1947660667\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBISAC Categories:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e- \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=CAT-HIS\"\u003eHistory\u003c\/a\u003e | \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=BISAC-HIS036050\"\u003eUnited States | Civil War Period (1850-1877)\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eThis title is not returnable\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Shotwell Publishing LLC","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44520722432237,"sku":"9781947660663","price":31.18,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0550\/8097\/6621\/products\/img_1da3844b-a10b-432e-b54b-33981cf99bf3.jpg?v=1701279733","url":"https:\/\/sureshotbooks.com\/products\/key-wests-civil-war-rather-unsafe-for-a-southern-man-to-live-here-9781947660663","provider":"SureShot Books Publishing LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
